TikTok is removing more music due to a dispute with Universal Music Group (UMG) over royalties.
This includes songs by artists who have collaborated with UMG-signed writers.
Up to 30% of popular songs may be affected, potentially rising to 80%.
Universal let their licensing deal with TikTok expire earlier this year, leading to the removal of millions of songs.
The disagreement highlights concerns about fair compensation for artists.
While some artists support Universal’s stance, others worry about the impact on their careers.
This situation underscores the complex relationship between music, technology, and compensation in the digital age.
